Natalie released a statement about her Best Actress nomination. It’s nothing too exciting but I thought it would be worth sharing.

“I am so honored and grateful to the Academy for this recognition. It is a wonderful culmination of the ten-year journey with Darren to make this film. Making Black Swanis already the most meaningful experience of my career, and the passion shown for the film has completed the process of communication between artists and audience. I am so thankful for the support we have received and I share this honor with the entire cast and crew of the film, especially Darren Aronofsky.”

In other awards news, Natalie was nominated by the International Cinephile Society. Black Swan also got nominations for Best Picture, Cinematography, Supporting Actrress (Hershey), Director, and Original Score.
